1.Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’s hastily making table as ―Perfect! even though it couldn’t stand on uneven legs. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.The trouble with failure-prevention methods is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time —and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the honor roll or the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick comfort prize or say, ―It doesn’t matter because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment —and be helped to master it.Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you can learn to use it. Step one is to ask ―Why did I fail? Control the natural impulse to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. Second, is the goal you’re to reach the right one? Think about this question. ―If you dosucceed in this, where will it get me? This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyhow. The third thing to keep in mind about failure is that it’s part of life. Learn to ―live with yourself even though you may have failed. Remember, ―You can’t win themall.(1) The main idea of this passage is ().A、why people are afraid of failureB、the trouble with failure prevention methodsC、how to deal with failureD、both A and C(2) According to the passage, which of the following is not true?A、Most parents think failure may hurt their children.B、Most parents do not want their children know they have failed.C、A mother describes her child’s work ―perfect because she didn’t want to hurt him.D、If a child fails a subject, he should blame his teacher.(3) According to the writer, ().A、parents should tell their children to think nothing of not being chosen into a baseball teamB、children should be encouraged to get rid of disappointment all by themselvesC、parents should judge what their children have done as it isD、children should learn to enjoy a game that they won’t win(4) The last paragraph tells us ().A、there are three methods to deal with failureB、there are some methods to deal with failureC、failure is not enjoyableD、failure is part of life(5) ―Live with yourself in the last line may mean ().A、to tolerate yourself when you failB、to face failures all by yourselfC、to live in a house aloneD、to support yourself when you fail

    A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
    A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises (出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.
    There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history.
